Didn't the Templars use to lend out money?

I'm not as sure about that. I know they provided banking services which was necessitated by the vast movement of people and resources during the crusades, but I don't know if they charged interest.

They probably just charged for the service, which sounds fair. I know they lent a ton of gold to the French King, but then he took down the Templars, total move just to get out of paying them back.
